Reaching the Limit of Windows 2003: Numbers of Explorer Windows.
,----[ Quote ]
| At the end, the computer froze and we couldn't open anymore explorer.
| There was no more app that we can close, so we reached the limit of
| the numbers of Explorer in Windows at 84 Explorers. We realized that
| the every explorer uses only one process.
|
| After the computer froze, we had to forcefully turn off the computer.
| The explorer window was corrupted. It didn't have the Toolbar on the
| top. We search on the internet, and we found out the reason:
|
| this behavior is caused by one or more corrupt values in the
| Windows Registry.

Someone also argued that a persistent keypress in Vista can trigger the
opening of many windows, which render the platform virtually dead and
require a reboot.
